India just 5 good balls away from sealing series!
So, how long will India take to bundle out New Zealand in this second Test in Mumbai? One session or two! One should be more than enough as India only need 5 Kiwi wickets to finish off this contest. The only thing that can save New Zealand from here is a two-day continuous rain which is certainly not going happen! It is now up to the Kiwi batters to trey and take this game as far as possible before defeat.
